New research from the University of Wyoming reveals that the brain cells that control hunger may be far more adaptable during prenatal brain development than scientists previously believed. This ...

A new University of Rochester study could reshape how scientists think about perception, learning disorders, and artificial ...

Researchers challenge the long-standing "neural independence" theory, showing that learning actually makes neurons more coordinated.

Scientists used a compact AI model to predict how visual cortex neurons respond to images, revealing hidden patterns in perception.

Florida Atlantic University has received a $2.4 million grant from the National Institutes of Health to investigate how an immune-related receptor in neurons plays a fundamental role in brain function ...

A new study suggests AI systems could be a lot more efficient. Researchers were able to shrink an AI vision model to 1/1000th ...

Every time we feel a gentle tap on the skin, specialized nerve cells convert that physical force into an electrical signal ...

In a new study from Karolinska Institutet, published in Nature Neuroscience, researchers have identified the neurogenic progenitor that gives rise to dopaminergic neurons, the primary neurons affected ...

Neurons placed inside engineered living bodies built from frog cells self-organize, become active, and reshape movement ...

An EEG (electroencephalogram) is a painless test that uses small sensors placed on the scalp to measure the brain's electrical activity. It provides a real-time readout of brain "waves"—rhythms ...

When HHMI Investigator Amita Sehgal started studying sleep 25 years ago, the topic elicited a yawn from most biologists. "In the year 2000, if I had suggested to my department that we hire people ...
